He then\r\ngoes on to say, \"But that was not first which is spiritual,\r\nbut that which is natural; and afterward that which is\r\nspiritual.\" And here he much more clearly asserts that he\r\nreferred to the animal body when he said that the first man<span class=\"pagenum\"><a id=\"Page_550\">[Pg 550]</a></span>\r\nwas made a living soul, and to the spiritual when he said that\r\nthe last man was made a quickening spirit. The animal\r\nbody is the first, being such as the first Adam had, and which\r\nwould not have died had he not sinned, being such also as\r\nwe now have, its nature being changed and vitiated by sin to\r\nthe extent of bringing us under the necessity of death, and\r\nbeing such as even Christ condescended first of all to assume,\r\nnot indeed of necessity, but of choice; but afterwards comes\r\nthe spiritual body, which already is worn by anticipation by\r\nChrist as our head, and will be worn by His members in the\r\nresurrection of the dead.</p>","headings":["THE WORKS OF AURELIUS AUGUSTINE,","BOOK THIRTEENTH.","ARGUMENT."],"marker_anchor":null,"paragraph_id":"pg45304-paragraph-945"}],"canonical_references":[],"date_end":null,"date_start":null,"deduplication_fingerprint":"f6efa91e4f871ae0b7d5180aa94b090f9b265d7d683e31daaf7ea303b7774547","edition_title":"The City of God, Volume I","edition_translators":["Marcus Dods","George Wilson (Book IV)","J.
